As you look at the day before you, you see a twisted, complicated path, with branches going off in all directions. You wonder how you can possibly find your way through the maze. Then you remember the One who is with you always, holding you by your right hand. You recall. My promise to guide you with My counsel, and you begin to relax. As you look again at the path ahead, you notice that a peaceful fog has settled over it, obscuring your view. You can see only a few steps in front of you, so your turn your attention more fully to Me and begin to enjoy My Presence.
The fog is a protection for you, calling you back into the present moment. Although I inhabit all of space and time, you can communicate with Me only here and now. Someday the fog will no longer be necessary, for you will have learned to keep your focus on Me and on the path just ahead of you.
Psalm 73:23-24
English Standard Version
23 Nevertheless, I am continually with you;
you hold my right hand.
24 You guide me with your counsel,
and afterward you will receive me to glory.
1 Corinthians 13:12
23 Nevertheless, I am continually with you;
you hold my right hand.
24 You guide me with your counsel,
and afterward you will receive me to glory.
1 Corinthians 13:12
English Standard Version
For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I have been fully known.

My Prayer
Lord, you have my life in your hands. Though my life looks complicated to me, it is not a surprise to You. I need to trust You with the uncertainties and have confidence that if I can't see what is going on, I can can trust You for the outcome. You are not far, but you are near.

Good Morning Lord, Thank you for blessing my life with the assurance and promise that you are always with me holding my hand, guiding me, giving me the strength needed no matter what challenges I face each day. I am BLESSED.
ReplyDeleteAMEN!
DeleteThank you Lord for your beautiful light that surrounds me and guudes me allowing me to see my path. Step by step you are there and you know the way because you have already been there. You are the future. I love knowing that my life is secure in you. Thank you for this blessed assurance thru Christ.
DeleteBless you
DeleteSuch encouragement today. I feel the Lord so close to me these days for so many reasons. He is always right there with me and will never leave me. He never sleeps but takes care of me every moment. I put my loved ones in His Hands. The time ahead is uncertain but He is the Author of our futures. Thank you Jesus!!!
DeleteBless you Jeanne, on this intimate personal walk with Jesus!
DeleteDear God,
DeleteThank you for allowing us people to have paths to follow in the first place. Whether smooth trails or craggy bluffs, I know you are with us. I love you more than I can ever even imagine. Please show me the way to be a blessing to everyone in the world. This I pray in the name of your Son Yeshua the Messiah (Jesus Christ). Amen.
Heavenly Father, I am so grateful for your presence during my quiet time together each morning. Your presence reminds me to make my day more about you and less about me. I pray that throughout the day I continue to trust in You with all my heart and lean not on my own understanding; seeking You in all that I do and You will make my path straight. Proverbs 3:5-6
ReplyDeleteJeff, thanks for a wonderful example of how to take a truth of scripture we have learned and embrace it with our heart, we pray it into our heart. It is the bridge that connects “to see thee more clearly” with “love thee more dearly”. To pray for something is to fall in love with it. Thanks be to God!
DeleteAmen! The most important times of every day are the times I am still with Him. Was praying with my Mom and Sister this morning. My sister's dear husband, David just tested positive for Covid and he's in Missouri while my sister is in Brooklyn with my Mom until the beginning of December. He doesn't want her to come home because the numbers are out of control in Missouri and she is safer where she is. Thank you dear brothers and sisters for your powerful and sincere prayers for David. He is a righteous brother in Christ and has seen God's faithfulness in his life shine like the sun. I believe He will carry him right through this. Thank you Father in the Name of Your Son, Jesus Christ for this and continued blessings. Amen!
DeleteOur Dear Jeanne,
DeleteYou can count on my prayers for David.
Amen!
DeleteDitto ! Bob and Jeff! Amen!
ReplyDeleteGod please help me I need you always
ReplyDelete"The fog is a protection for you, calling you back into the present moment." Thank you Father for shrouding our future in the "fog" of the unknown. Who of us at 25, could truly and maturely manage the knowledge of the next 50 years. Knowing the date and cause of the future loss of our loved ones, dreams realized and not, and the eventuality of our own death. Your miracle of our creation allowed us to see the future abstractly to build homes and communities but wisely keeps us unknowing of death and tragedies...
ReplyDeleteYou knew our spirits would be broken and fearful of the future if we knew these eventualities at times certain. Truly, a humbling and an amazing part of our creation. At times our lives do have turmoil, and then we pray for Your Spirit and Your right hand to wrap us in love to climb the hill of that mountaintop period that we enjoy now and then here in this life. In Your Holy name we pray that our valleys always lead us to a closer walk with You, Amen.
Thank you MadFox for sharing your insights..
DeletePeasFC, very kind. a little experience mixed with decades of seeking Him. Our journey is about collecting wisdom from God, His word, living life, and mentors... and then humbly sharing where appropriate.
DeleteAmen dear MadFox! He is casting a sweet mist over the future so we will stay in the present with Him where He holds our hands and walks us gently through the day He has prepared. Keeping my eyes on the light on my path today as I trust in His guidance and protection. His eyes are on the sparrow and I know He watches over me. Praying for you dear brother. He is holding you very tight right now. Rest in His fond embrace.
DeleteMadFox- It’s 2023, and I’ve been re- reading old posts. This one from 2020 stuck out this morning. You are spot on - thank you for sharing your insight. The “fog” does protect us and allows us to lean on God even more.
DeleteSC Anonymous
SC Anonymous: Yes, it is amazing to go back and read some of what was written and what you've postulated as well! Thank goodness for not being able to see the future. I'd bet suicide would be more prevalent... And frankly, it is absolutely in line with FAITH. it helps you develop it. ingenius in our "design". Thank you God. Amen
Delete** reposted see "removed" above because of a BAD typo!
I so agree with SC anonymous! These older posts and Jeff's prayer with your words on the future and having FAITH are so timely and important to me in my journey! Thank you all JC prayer warriors! You're continued witness helps me every day!❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏

DeleteSo grateful for all your comments, insights and prayers!

Just a closer walk with THEE, grant it Lord is my plea. Your word is a lamp unto my feet.
ReplyDeleteGod does gift talented musicians to often put scripture into beautiful songs. "Thy word" by Amy Grant comes to mind. Sassy Mom, thanks... for sharing your insights and for openly posting your prayers the past few years.
DeleteMadFox - BIGGGGGG thanks for your wisdom and insightful comments.
DeleteThanks MadFox for pointing me to "Thy word" by Amy Grant. It was my early morning singing song!
DeleteBrie- it is an oldie but a “goodie.” 😃🎶☀️
DeleteLove that good old song dear Sassy Mom. MadFox, I'm listening now to Thy Word. It is so beautiful and I have always loved it! Thanks!
DeleteWas listening to this song this morning and it blessed me:
IT IS SO
There is a promise
That points beyond my failure
There is a still voice
To silence all my fears
Even the worst of my mistakes
Are miracles in the making
Are miracles in the making
By Your stripes, I am healed
With one touch, I am made whole
You have spoken
And I know that it is so
In the storm, You are peace
And Your love won't let me go
You have spoken
And I know that it is so
In every season
Your purpose is unchanging
In every moment
You're working for my good
Jesus the Rock that never fails
Your kingdom will not be shaken
Your kingdom will not be shaken
By Your stripes, I am healed
With one touch, I am made whole
You have spoken
And I know that it is so
In the storm, You are peace
And Your love won't let me go
You have spoken
And I know that it is so
Oh I know, yes I know
I already know you're gonna do it
'Cause faith will suit you, ah
'Cause faith will show you, ah, Lord
Your word is settled in heaven
It will be done
Father, let it be done
Yours is the kingdom forever
Your will be done
Let it be done
Your word is settled in heaven
It will be done
Father, let it be done
Yours is the kingdom forever
Your will be done
Let it be done
Your word is settled in heaven
It will be done
Father, let it be done
Yours is the kingdom forever
Your will be done
Oh, let it be done
Oh, let it be, let it be done, oh
By Your stripes, I am healed
With one touch, I am made whole
You have spoken
And I know that it is so
In the storm, You are peace
And Your love won't let me go

ReplyDeleteShould "communicate with Me only hear and now." be communicate with Me only HERE and now."?
Yes indeed. Thanks for noticing that. Corrected.
DeleteYou're welcome and thank you for your service indeed! God bless you and thank you for bringing this daily message to us all.
DeleteThank you for your service, I have the book, and feel this is an easy way to communicate with others as well.
ReplyDeleteTo You oh Lord he all the Glory and Honor for the Great Things You have done! Waking up this morning to Your mercy, grace and the 'Fog' of protection that leads me back into the present moment with You, is an unspeakable expression of Thanksgiving to Your Holy name!
ReplyDeleteThank You Your Lord for Your promise to me in Isaiah 41:10- "Do not fear, for I am with you; do not anxiously look about you, For I am your God. I will strengthen you, surely I will help you, Surely I will uphold you with My righteous right hand"(NAS).
Good morning JC family, stay blessed today and remember that our Great and Awesome God is:
'Guiding us with His counsel and afterward, will receive us into Glory/Honor'! What a Promise!!!
Give Thanks to the King this morning and Bless His Holy name!
Maplewood, NJ
Thanks King!
DeleteAmen!!! Thank you dear Father!! Do not fear though our very foundation shakes, we stand together on the Rock!
DeleteResting on that Promise, dear Maplewood! Be anxious in nothing. Great is His Faithfulness! His Promise still stands.
Amen dear Brie! Praise His Holy Name, the King of Glory!!!
Thank you Lord, for guiding me unto the right path. Thank you also for providing the fog; I realize it is a protection for me.
ReplyDeletePlease guide me and protect me each step of my journey today, dear God. Only You know the challenges I have already encountered this morning. I am struggling with looking forward into the day. Help me to stay focused on You in the moment. There is no need for me to look ahead and worry. I'm holding your hand tightly; I know you will not let go. Help me to live by my words: Jesus, I trust in You. Amwn. CO

DeleteAmen! What a blessed way to start the day! Remain in His sweet presence and grace. He is right here and He's not going anywhere.
DeleteLord, thank you for Your perfect plan for my life. I am in constant need of You throughout my day. I find such a comforting peace spending time with you. What seems so unmanageable at first glance becomes doable woth Your grace. Please protect me from my own careless thoughts, words, and actions. My focus today will be to make my day more about You than me.

😊 HARD: Thank You for Letting Go to Letting God Blessings.
😊 SURPRISE: Thank You for a thousand star lights in the sky Blessings.
✝️ FROM PSALM 139
GOD THINKS YOU ARE AMAZING
Thank You for making me so wonderfully complex that it is amazing to think about. Your Workmanship is Marvelous and how well I know it.
🙏 THANKSGIVING PRAYER FOR US:
Dear Heavenly Father God, Thank You for thinking of us as Your Amazing, Marvelous Creations. Rather than looking at ourselves in the mirror and judging what we look like, would You help us mirror to others what You like looking at in us? Would You help us give up our aspirations to run against You for the Judge seat? Then, when it is just the two of us together, would you help us see the same things you see inside of us, i.e.,Your gradual, patient and continual transformation work in progress until we see ourselves through the Eyes of our Lord Jesus Christ, as completely and dearly loved as He sees us?
In Jesus' Name I ask. I seek. I knock. I praise. I thank. Amen
Thank you Brie - love your enthusiasm! I can see all the angels clapping. KS
DeleteAmen
DeleteI love the “mirror to others” idea. Thank you, Brie!
DeleteThank you Brie🥰. Amen!
DeleteGreat prayer, Brie! Joining in on it! ❤️
DeleteYou really blessed my heart today sweet Brie! I needed to be reminded how He sees me. I was looking at the gray hairs that are coming in. I have never colored my hair and I'm in my sixties. God has kept it brown except for the many little grays that are like my natural highlights. But God doesn't see how our earth suit is getting tattered or torn. He just sees us as His beloved children, beautiful because we are created in His image. The Christ in us is the beauty within that shines though our cracked vessel. How blessed we are to have unchanging beauty always shining through!
DeleteThanks dear Sister for all your words and prayers that lift me sky high every day.
This was really good, Brie: " Would You help us give up our aspirations to run against You for the Judge seat?" 😉
DeleteThis prayer hits the mark for me again this year. Thank you Brie! Seeking, knocking, praying beside you all in Jesus's name.🙏
DeleteStill such a good gratitude prayer, sister Brie!
DeleteHi all. Its been a long time since posting. Work and commuting are keeping me very busy. I don't get to read everyday but try to at least look through the names and see who is posting. I'm looking forward to working slowing down for winter.
ReplyDeleteGood to hear from you Keith. I was wondering about you.
DeleteHi Keith. It is great to see you again. How is the new job? Thinking about you and praying for you.
DeleteAlways in my thoughts and prayers dear Keith. Hope things are going well. I'm sure you're producing much good fruit to His glory every day. May God continue to guide your path to love and fulfillment.

Thank you for going before us on this foggy path and that we have a deep knowing of Your love for us and how firmly you grip our hand. I lift my youngest son to You as he has his CT scan. I know You are with him. Lower his B/P and calm his heart as he faces the unknown. Praying for my family and our unity that nothing can destroy unless we let it.

DeleteI PRAY relaxation prayers for you too Norah.
Love, Brie
PS Is this the same son who needed a permission slip? Asking for a friend 😍
Joining prayers for your dear son's scan, Norah. May it show good results. May the Lord surround him with peace as he gets tested and may He calm your concerned and beautiful heart.

Remembering these prayer requests and I had to laugh when I read your question, Brie, that I missed a couple of years ago! No, that was my daughter (I think!). :)
DeleteI have been reading JC a long time. I think close to 15 years. I don’t recall the fog concept. But today it seems important for all the times I have asked (pleaded) with God for foresight, that he protects us from it sometimes.
ReplyDeleteMay we embrace your ways as gifts, Papa, for surely your ways are not ours. Thank you for your protection. Thank you for the fog.
Somewhere in my memory bank deposits, today's devotion withdrew this:
DeleteFog BY CARL SANDBURG
The fog comes in
on little cat's feet.
It sits looking
over harbor and city
on silent haunches
and then moves on.
Thanking Him for the still quietness that fog brings, but especially thanking Him when fog moves on.
Praying Blessings through the fogginess, for our JC family with love.
Love, "Papa"
DeleteThank you for that brief visit to San Francisco! Thank you Father for blessing me with travels to so many beautiful places. Thank you for all the beautiful places you have guided me to find a home. But most of all, thank you for fixing me to the full realization that wherever I am, you are with me, and ask if well. Blessings and prayers for JC family members today, and their children, and their children, and generations! Ahhhhhhhmen, amen, amen! 🎶
DeleteAmen! Wherever I am, He is with me, and as the praise goes up, His blessings come down.
DeleteA Josh Baldwin song:
ReplyDeleteHe led me out of the desert
Brought me into His streams
River of living water
Turned my bitter into sweet
And all my burdens are lifted
You took the shackles off my feet
Chorus:
So let the redeemed of the Lord say so
Sing of His promises ever more
Pour out your thankfulness, let it overflow
Let the redeemed of the Lord say so
There's joy in the morning
Springing up in my soul
There's life worth living
'cause He calls me His own
And there's a hallelujah
After sweet victory
Oh there's no sound louder than a captive set free
Oh there's no sound louder than a captive set free
Chorus:
You are my deliverer
The freedom I'm livin' in
You are my deliverer
You are my promised land
You are my deliverer
The freedom I'm livin' in
God You are my deliverer
You are my promised land
There's no sound louder than a captive set free
There's no sound louder than a captive set free
There's no sound louder than a captive set free
There's no sound louder than a captive set free
So let the redeemed of the Lord say so
Sing of His promises ever more
Pour out your thankfulness, let it overflow
Let the redeemed of the Lord say so
"So!"
DeleteHow is your son? He remains in my prayers, and so do you, Jan.
Brie, thank you for asking. It's the waiting game. The VA is stepping all over themselves at the moment. We appreciate what the VA does when they finally outrun molasses & can move ahead. Thank you dear sis for the warrior that you are🥰
DeleteLots of worship music going on here this Monday morning! Thank you to the leaders in song!
DeleteDear Jan, Keeping your dear son in my prayers. Hope you hear something soon and only good reports. We must be reminded of the fruit of the spirit, long suffering. We are all waiting on the Lord. I love that song you posted. Amen! Yes Audra! Been listening to praise music all day to comfort my heart. Can't eat anything because of tomorrow's colonoscopy but I'm doing fine, thank God and I believe all will be well. Let us praise Him together with song.
DeleteHere's one of that God gave me.
To Only You Do I Belong
I’ll stand forever at your door
For only You can give me more
Than anything this world can give
For by your death, you’ve made me live
Every minute, every hour
I feel your peace, I feel your power
When trouble is surrounding me
Your faithfulness will set me free.
When times grow hard and things go wrong
You’re always there to keep me strong
You are my life. You are my song.
To only You do I belong-
You are my life. You are my song
To only You do I belong
No task too great, no road too long
for me to take with You along
This world will only fade away
But your great love and mercy stay
No greater love than what You give
That by your death, we all can live
No sweeter peace can fill our day
No brighter light can guide our way
When times grow hard and things go wrong
You’re always there to keep me strong
You are my life. You are my song.
To only You do I belong-
You are my life. You are my song
To only You do I belong
What A Beautiful Gift. Thanks for giving it to us. I received what you composed. Love you, Brie
DeleteWow Thank you Jeanne! What a beautiful song ❤

Jeanne, beautiful words. Praying for excellent results of colonoscopy & I have you penned in for Dec. 2. All will be well. The beauty of your soul jumps right out of the page of your post. You're a blessing to us🥰
DeleteThank you Brie, Blessings from France and Jan, for your kind words!!! I have tears in my eyes. And thanks so much for your prayers. I am leaving for my colonoscopy in a couple of hours. I know God will lead me smoothly through and I will get a good report. I stand on His faithfulness.

Praying your son gets answers, Norah, and I will hold him and your family in my prayers. The waiting and wondering is hard but knowing Christ is in us, that Jehovah Rapha is at work...always, can give us peace. Trusting God has a plan and leaning on that thought brings comfort as well.
ReplyDeleteMay all in this wonderful JC family feel God's blessings and comfort today!
Amen dear NJS. Thank you for your prayers and blessing. May God surround you and your family with peace, comfort and healing today. And hope and joy too!
DeleteLoving Heavenly Father, For this is the day You have made and place me in. Thank You that no matter what may come my way today, You are my refuge and strength, my God in whom I trust. You are my present help in times of all my needs. You uphold me with Your righteous hand and wrap me in Your righteousness through Jesus Christ the Righteous One. You have promised to guide me and keep me safe from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence. Thank You for giving Your angels charge over me, to keep me in all my ways, satisfying me with long life and showing me Your salvation (Psalm 91). One thing have I desired of You oh Lord, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in Your house all the days of my life, to behold Your beauty, and to enquire in Your temple. I will wait on You, I will be of good courage, because I know You will strengthen my heart. Yes, I will wait on You Lord (Psalm 27). In Jesus name I pray, amen.

Just what I needed, dear sweet Maplewood! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteThanks Maplewood NJ, My first thought was to help God out and turn off the TV when I read... keep me safe from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence...
ReplyDeleteLovely words; lovely songs....thank you, JC Family! My son's report was all good - he is just so blessed that he will be able to hear again - no permanent damage. Jan - I'm praying for your son. Praying for good servants on his watch. If you need help with VA, your Congressman most likely has a VA/Military Caseworker, who may be able to expedite his case. Google house.gov and put in your zip code - that will tell you your US Representative/Congressman-Woman. Call the office and tell them your son has a case (they will need a privacy release form from him to pursue his case). Many good things are done every day. Love you, sister in Christ! Praying for your son.
ReplyDeleteSleep sweet, JC Family - God is on the Watch!
Thank God your son got a good report, Norah! Praise the Lord! I am doing my victory dance. God is so good!!! Praying with you for Jan's son. He is in God's Hands and it's a very good place to be.

GRACE TAKES TIME: I miss our daily serving of sweet Maplewood NJ also. She wrote a few weeks back to say she joined another group, but would check in periodically. I hope she checks in to take us out on November 30 and in on December 1.
I am so very thankful Chris has managed to keep all the former posts alive.
Praying that Maplewood is bringing joy, peace, God's wisdom and much love to the new group as she has always brought to us. We are blessed to be able to feast on all of her older posts. They are God anointed and Spirit guided, and timeless.
DeleteAmen to that dear Jeanne.
DeleteDitto! Amen. Trusting Maplewood remains in our prayers and us in hers.
DeleteMay God bless my dear siblings ( forever brothers & sisters) in Christ as much as this beautiful place of heartfelt God inspired words blesses me every time I visit. Tonight instead of preparing for tomorrows Bible study I am led by the Holy Spirit of God to drench myself in the love line of God thru his children. All of you. A great thank you to The Lord! I feel His presence in your pleas and praises, song and verse & in your thankful trust. So nice to see the familiar names and to remember how you each loved me through some dark times.
DeleteThank you Brie and Jeanne who held my hand so perfectly that I felt the blood flowing in my heart and the peace of God ministered to me through your prayers.
Many of you saved me through your faith in Jesus. I needed to borrow it from each of you when I wasnt strong enough, thank you forever and infinitely.I plan on returning the favor if I may. Lord lead me in prayer with The Helper to present these requests to you in my imperfect way transformed in the absolute right choice of thought and word. The solution to every open ended problem here on earth translated into your highest of high response. Heal us all in your wisdom and grace in The name of JESUS CHRIST who is mighty to save.
Amen

DeleteWhether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying "This is the way; walk in it." (Isaiah 30:21). But when he, the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all the truth. He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you what is yet to come. (John 16:13). I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you with My loving eye on you. (Psalm 32:8).
ReplyDeleteHeavenly Father, thank You for always being with me and for protecting me and keeping me close to You. I praise You Lord. Thank You Jesus. You always know what's best for me and You take the best care of me. I can't do anything apart from You. Thank You for being in my life. I need Your guidance, especially for the choice that I need to make at work today. When I speak, let the words be those of the Holy Spirit and when I walk, let my steps be directed by the Holy Spirit. Help me to follow You Lord and not my own flesh. I am sorry for letting the things of this world distract me lately. Please forgive me Lord. Help me to keep You the center of my life and to always look to You in all things. Please place Your healing hands upon me and remove this painful affliction that is causing me such grief these last few days. I know that it would only take one touch from Your healing hand to be gone and to make everything better. Touch me with Your healing hand and remove this pain from my body. Thank You Jesus. Guide me and direct my steps along Your path for me and not what I think is good for me. I need and want You in my life. I can't make it without You Lord -- nor do I want to. In Jesus name, I pray, Amen.
ReplyDeleteAmen. Godspeed.
DeleteContinued prayer dear Janet. We all wander away from the center of His will from time to time. What matters is that we find the way back again. You love the Lord so much dear sis that I've no doubt it only takes a minute before you are centered again. Praying for your pain🙏💕
DeleteJanet, prayers for pain relief for you. Can you name it, feel it, dismiss the cause with the help of Jesus? He loves to CO-LABOR with us. Sometimes we need to find a way to do that while we pray for Him to do what He can do. It's a balance, it's a partnership, it's RELATIONSHIP ♥️🙏
DeleteJanet, Praying for much awaited relief
DeleteIn the name of the healer, Jesus.
Praying that your pain will be removed by the greatest Physician. Thank You good and faithful Jesus!
ReplyDeleteDear Janet, Please make sure you do not sit for too long. Get up and move around dear sister. Looking forward to hearing of God's healing and faithfulness. Wait on the Lord and trust in His ways.
My good husband and I are getting Covid tests around 9 AM. I must pick up my grandson from nursery school at noon. I have been wearing a mask all the time now. Praying for that negative result. They said it may take 3-5 days to get the results but I am leaning on my long suffering fruit of the Spirit and remembering God's faithfulness.
ReplyDeleteLifting both of you to the throne of grace dear Jeanne. Praying for NEGATIVE!🙏💕
DeleteJeanne praying for negative results for you and your husband and a feeling of wellness in your body. In Jesus name. Sending love
DeletePraying our faithful Father protects you and Rick and you receive negative test results. In Jesus name, I pray, Amen. God bless.
DeleteI posted in 2019, of the amazing creation of our human brains, and the truth to God's right hand always willing to be holding ours. In doing so, He is easing the fear of the unknown, by keeping it in the 'beautiful fog.' It hit me squarely this week and just earlier, as I "benefit" from some steroid enhanced extra activity both positive and negative at late hours of the night! (Smile) I finally stopped to read today's JC devo... and read Madfox setting Madfox straight!
ReplyDeleteI'm reminded in the past 2 weeks as I've struggled again (I too am slow to learn, Paul!) with a few things both personal and medical. Focus in faith is indeed learning to deal with the daily immediate challenges and not projecting negatively into the future. Easily said, challenging to live. But it starts with ignoring naysayers, even family, by starting with just a simple prayer: "Jesus". As a human being, He knows our fears and pains. He DID KNOW his future, yet lived each day for its need not His. Seek Him that simply. And then in your mind's eye, see His Holy hand firmly connected and holding yours. A handshake of love. A parental hug. A Father rejoicing at the prodigal. A dear Friend who has walked your path before you.
Thanks for your prayers. Better now with another adjustment to maintenance and some new analysis to the nagging side effects. Found by a procedure the local oncologist decided to do after no progress for a while. We hope/pray to see positive change from it. He and my wife are a part of the mystical but actual right hand of God.
Praying for all posting needs here, as I've read many these past few weeks in the JC Warrior group. Godspeed. Agape. Amen.
Praying for you Madfox. This has not been an easy path our Lord is walking with you on. I'm sure that it starts to become to much at times, but I'm also sure that its not long before you regain your focus and turn your eyes back to the one who created you. Standing with you on

ReplyDeleteWoke up to my wife asking, 'what is today's date?'I sleepily thought then told her. She ( who never seems to forgot anything), said ' do you realize we first met 50 years ago yesterday?' I had not...WOW, Thank you Lord for such a rich blessing! Thank you for my helpmeet, the earthly lifelong loving companion you chose for me. Married on Nov 4 1972, my wonderful Karen is the biggest blessing in my life. Thank you Lord for moving me across continents for us to meet that first time at the YWCA in Durban, thank you Lord for 3 wonderful children and 6 grandchildren. Thank you Lord for Jeremiah 29:11 NIV
ReplyDelete"For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."
Praise God for his blessings over you and accomplishing through you and your wife an example of his marriage covenant. Be blessed
DeleteWhat a sweet blessing Peter. Congrats to both of you. May you have many more years to enjoy your bride💕🙏
ReplyDeleteLord please continue to heal mine and Noah's bodies. Please work out each of the little/big things we have going on. Please give Tim and I wisdom as we take action in each situation. Lord I don't understand why I'm having set backs in my health. Lord I'm trying to take it easy and when I do something I try to go slowly and listen to my body. Today is a harder day even when I walk I'm having a hard time breathing and my balance is off. Lord please heal my body. I want to go up north for Thanksgiving to be with family. I want to be able to take care of my children and go to church. Lord you know my sisters had to cancel my surprise birthday party. It broke my heart when they asked me if I would be able to go and I had to say no. I knew it would be to much and I would only get worse if I tried too. Lord I empty myself to you. I don't understand why my body is still sick. People say it sometimes takes months to recover from covid. I feel I'm back where I was when I got out of the hospital. Please Lord just heal me. Lord I'm sorry for fussing and sounding like a selfish child. I need you to complete the healing you started, but not my will but yours. Who am I to not have to suffer when my Lord and savior died on the cross for me. I thank you Father God for walking me through each step of my life. Even when I wasn't serving you, you were there. Thank you for watching over me and protecting me from myself and the pour choices I made. Father I accept whatever you choose to do. I will try to listen and follow your direction only. Thank you for providing for me. All that I truly need is you.
ReplyDeleteJC family please pray with me that the Father's will be done in my body. Thank you! You are also in my prayers and I'm very thankful for this temple that God has created where we can come together and praise him and go before his thrown together on behalf of one another. Have a blessed day knowing that the king of kings and the Lord of Lords watchers over and protects you and yours. With love Terri
Praying for you and our Noah, dear TERRI.
Delete🙏🙏🙏🙏 Terri! This too shall pass.
DeleteTerri praying for complete healing in your life. Lord hear our prayer
DeleteVICTORY IN JESUS!!!! This Sassy Mom is very blessed and happy. Thanks dear faithful prayer warriors. Denise called one hour ago to say she feels better but not great.

Yes dear SC! Such a blessing that our loving Father leads us by the hand through every day. We must remind ourselves that we are always in His care and in His presence. Amen.
DeleteJC Warriors, I wanted to let you know that I went and had xrays done on Friday and I have a sprained chest wall and fractured/broken rib. I thank the Lord. He has been wanting me to slow down and I thought I was but I guess not enough. He ALWAYS knows best. They said it would be about 10 to 12 weeks to heal, but I know that the Lord is already healing me and I'm just so grateful to Him. I want to thank all of you for your prayers. I'm so thankful for each one of you here. God is so good ALWAYS! Thank You Jesus 😊.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you had films taken, Janet, and that you now have an answer! While I'm sorry you've been in so much discomfort and pain, I'm glad you now know what it is and you know God began the healing even before the films were taken! They say 10-12 weeks to heal but we all know God can do things instantly! Thanks, Janet, for letting us know and healing prayers continuing! In Jesus' name, amen!
DeleteThank you for this Victory Report, Janet - you've been on my heart and in my prayers. And, even though it's 10-12 weeks, or as NJS said, much sooner (love that!), to have an answer is a blessing. Continued prayers, Dear Sister!
DeleteThanks for the update our dear sister friend in Christ, Janet. I've heard that pain is God's megaphone for getting our attention. Let the healing that has already begun, continue.
DeleteAs you turn your attention more fully to Him and His Healing, may you begin to enjoy the 10 to 12 week journey on His Path with His Presence. In Jesus' Name. Amen. With much love and many prayers, Brie.
Dear Janet, Thanks for letting us know exactly what we should pray for. May God heal your chest wall and your rib and every weakness of your body, mind and spirit in Jesus' Name. Amen!
DeleteGod bless you Janet and prayers for a speedy recovery
ReplyDeleteThere are so many things on my heart and 'in the works,' that I've had little time to comment, but read and pray for each of you, every day. I loved reading JC again, this year, as it always means different things each year.
ReplyDeleteI'm praying for my sister who is having her colonoscopy as I type. Her prep went so well and she is very peaceful (looking forward to that yummy meal when it's all over and the great nap she will have). :)
Reading your past posts, MadFox, brought home to me all God has worked, not only in your life, your family but in all of us through your recent journey. My DH's journey has taken a twist: his MM counts continue to be 'Normal," so no chemo at this time, thank God. It was discovered, however, that he has Barrett's Syndrome and a procedure is scheduled so that they know how to treat it. The Dr. explained it as a 'every 3 year scope to make sure all is well, b/c it is a pre-cancerous condition.' So, God told me to compare it to my colonoscopies - precautionary. He will go in a month or two for the test.
I am finally having my cataracts addressed. Had my pre-consultation (again - I did it a year or two ago and had to continually postpone due to COVID and DH testing), so it is on the books now for Dec. 6th. I switched Drs, from an hour+ away to one 5 mins away. Such relief! I could walk, if I had to! HA HA!
So many things to pray for and to accomplish in our home as the renovation is completed and now it's 'put it all back' time. Sigh. It seems massive to me, but not to God! Prayers for one of my cases (Pat - whom we've all prayed for over the last 3 years); such a desperate situation, with no end in sight - TO HER 5 senses. Yet, she is grasping the Word of God that I'm able to provide and we pray together. Please keep her in her prayers: needs a car, financial stability (she's 75); an end to the court battle over her husband's care (with her daughter - such a sad situation). Prayers for all of my kids who are going through their own busy lives with work, relationships (my dear daughter); busy schedules; yet the ones closest remain in constant communication for which we are so thankful!
You are especially on my heart, Sassy Mom, as the holidays approach. Many prayers for you my Dear Sister in Christ - that you are surrounded with His Love and the family and friends who love you so much. Praying for your trip, Dear Jan; for the test results for your Grandgirls' dear daddy and for all on your plate.
Jeanne - I'm awaiting a report on your eye surgery. Always in my prayers, as all of you - Brie, Audra - and, OK - ALL OF YOU! There I go again....our list has gotten much longer, so I will wrap it up by saying, Love and Blessings to all of you Dear JC Family. I am so thankful for each of your lives, your sharing, your prayers, your love. We are BLESSED! <3
Yoir sister's colonoscopy reminds me of life: ...Prep went so well and she is very peaceful (looking forward to that yummy meal when it's all over and the great nap she will have). :)
DeleteIJS!
Thank you Nora- God is good🙏
DeletePraying that your dear sister's colonoscopy went well and she got a good report. I'm so thankful that your husband's MM numbers were normal so he won't need the chemo. Just give God his other issue to handle. Be not afraid. God goes before you always. Praying that your cataracts will get taken care us and you will soon be seeing clearly. May God take care of your good children and guide your daughter's relationship. Continuing to pray for Pat. She needs so much help from Him. May God answer her prayers and lead her to everything she needs. Praying with her is the best gift you could give to her. Continuing to pray for our dear Sassy Mom and dear Terri who miss their dear daughters so much especially at this holiday time. God bless and comfort them and their families. Thanks for your prayers dear Norah!
DeleteGoing for my consultation with the surgeon on Monday. I will let you know what he says. Most likely I'll need a biopsy but I'm leaving it all to our Way Maker. Keeping all our dear brothers and sisters in my prayers. We pray for each other because we know God hears every one and He is so faithful.
"Continuing to pray for our dear Sassy Mom and dear Terri who miss their dear daughters so much especially at this holiday time. God bless and comfort them and their families."
DeleteDear faithful JC Warriors, thank you for continuing prayers for our broken hearts to be healed. I long to see my husband and my Debbi.
As I look at the day before me, I see a twisted, complicated path, with branches going off in all directions and wonder how I can possibly find The Way, The Truth, and The Life through today's maze, until I remember the One who is with us always, holding us up by our right hand, and i start singing

DeleteBeautiful sentiment, Norah! Joining in a prayer of gratitude as His Peace surrounds us in the fog of the day.
DeleteThanks dear Brie! May God hold your pretty hand and lead you through the maze right to Him. He lights our wilderness and makes our paths straight. Hallelujah!
ReplyDeleteEchoing all prayers.
DeleteWhat if, just for today I am thankful for EVERYTHING, including mazes, and twisted, complicated paths, with branches going off in all directions?
ReplyDeleteDear Heavenly Father God,
Thank You for helping me realize that ThanksGiving is more than just one day on the calendar. I am thankfully grateful for all You Do in my life everyday of the year. Thank You for helping me keep my focus on You and the path just ahead of me. Thank You for giving me just enough light for the step I'm on, especially on those days when I am aMAZEing my way through. Thank You in Jesus' Name. AMEN!
Amen Brie 🙏.
DeleteThanks dear Brie! We are thankful even for the wilderness that we often find ourselves in because the Lord walks through it with us and it tests our faith. We hold onto His Hand and walk forward because He knows where we're going and He's faithful to take us through uncertain paths and through our rough spots and valleys. His peace and light are still with us through the hard times. So we are thankful. Amen. Thanksgiving should be every day. I do thank Him in the morning for the new day and all He has set before me. A new day is a gift that many do not receive. So we should live it with a grateful heart and stay in His presence and produce good fruit for His glory.
DeleteI thank God everyday for not relegating me to just one day on His calendar. I pray to go and do likewise when it comes to HIM and my calendar.
DeleteI'm off to Brooklyn in a few hours and I'm praying my good Mom will show more signs of improvement with God's help. But I know it is God's will, not ours. Thanks for praying for Barry who lost his brother Rodney. The memorial service is today. I know he and his family have heavy hearts but God in His mercy lifted Rodney up out of his suffering and he is in a much better place. They will be with him again.
ReplyDeleteJohn 14: 1-3.
“Let not your heart be troubled. You believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father’s house are many mansions; If it were not so I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and take you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also!”
Safety I travel dear Jeanne & an encouraging visit with your mom. Covering Barry & family as they say their final goodbyes to their loved one. 💕🙏🌈.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your sincere prayers dear Jan and for all who prayed! My mom seemed stronger today thank God. She even tried using the walker for a few minutes.
DeleteI did my best to comfort Barry and his family today. I gave them some good Bible verses too. God was leading me.
Thanks be to God that Mom seemed stronger today. I'll take that and rejoice in Him, our Strength and our Salvation. In Jesus ' Name. AMEN!
DeletePrayers please dear warriors. At 4:15 today I have an MRI to see if my bile duct has settled down & gallstones are gone. I've felt pretty good & behaving myself. We'll see. I live & move & have my being in Jesus. Let His will be done amen!
ReplyDeleteThe JC Prayer Warriors are on it and praying you through it all, our dear Jan gridley. We are also praying for you to remember the One Who is with you ALWAYS, and ALWAYS holding you by your right hand. Between now and 4:15, enjoy the fog! In Jesus' Name. AMEN!
DeleteStanding in agreement with Brie's wonderful prayer. We JC WARRIORS are STANDING in the Gap for you, Jan! The MIGHTY, ALL-POWERFUL, ALL-KNOWING, EVER-PRESENT, ETERNAL, MERCIFUL and GRACIOUS, Father God, always has THE FINAL SAY!!! HALLELUJAH!!! NO WEAPON FORMED AGAINST YOU SHALL PROSPER!!! AMEN and AMEN
DeleteAMEN! HE'S got you, Jan, we're backing you up in prayer.
DeleteJoining all prayers that your test results will be good because God is in charge and He is faithful. Thank You Jesus.
DeleteSC Anonymous posted above in a 2019 post I wrote (pre-MM, post Heart Surgery) about the fog of the future being a blessing. I responded above but felt many might miss it. Yes, it is amazing to go back and read some of what was written and what you've postulated as well! Thank goodness for not being able to see the future. I'd bet suicide would be more prevalent... And frankly, it is absolutely in line with FAITH. it helps you develop it. ingenius in our "design". Thank you God. Amen
ReplyDeleteYes dear MadFox! It’s a blessing God only allows us to see little bits of His plans for us. So we just have to trust in His faithfulness. And wait on Him. Faith is what we stand on. We know He holds our futures and we believe He will make things right.
DeleteDear Father, help me to see my "fog and twisted path" as a nudge to keep focused on you ALWAYS. I love and am grateful that you provide what I need for today. Each is taken care of by you. No need for worry or become anxious (sadly, my go-to human response). Thank you Jesus! Amen.
ReplyDeleteAmen. We are taken care of and thankfully God loves us with all our human weaknesses.
DeleteSo thankful I can't see tomorrow, there's enough to deal with negotiating today with His help. Matthew 6:34 is “Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.”
ReplyDeleteAmen to that, dear Peter

ReplyDeleteEar JC Prayer Wareiors, Prayers are requested for our Sassy Mom and all of her neighbors, please and thanks!
ReplyDeleteHere is why she was not able to post on JC:
Dearest beloved Brie, thanks for reaching out to Sassy Mom. Please tell all my Jesus Calling friends the reason for my absence. Before going to bed I prayed a hedge of protection for my neighborhood when we received weather report that Hurricane Helene was planning to visit East Tennessee. One block away looked like a war zone. My home was spared. Thank you Jesus.
Many people were trapped in their homes from the destructive floods. Black Hawk Helicopters were everywhere rescuing people who were on their roof tops and hospital patients who were moved to rooftops. Our High School was opened as a shelter for those whose homes were totally destroyed. What you might have seen on TV was true only worse.
We lost power. I stayed with my daughter Dr. Denise for 2 days. My computer was destroyed. I have an ipad but couldn’t post on JC. I had no phone or internet service for 3 weeks. We were on a boil water alert for several days. Friends and neighbors brought bottled water to me. There were long lines of people who went to Walmart to buy bottled water.
I was able to drive out of subdivision to attend church (attendance was very low.)People were trapped in their homes because roads, highways and bridges were totally destroyed. You won’t believe the people from far away states who came to my area to help rebuild and repair areas that were destroyed. They brought truck loads of clothing, food and supplies when they arrived. One police department (I think it was New York) donated a cruiser to our area.
There is much grieving from those who lost loved ones and fur babies (whose bodies haven’t been found.)
Please continue prayers for those who were affected by this tragedy.
Thanks again for reaching out to Sassy Mom. My heart is blessed and overflowing with love ❤️ to you.
GOD is in control and you just can’t beat that. RDS
